This wikiHow teaches you how to delete individual sent messages from your side of a Skype conversation on both Skype mobile and the desktop program. This process is different than deleting a Skype conversation. You cannot delete another person's individual messages to you, but deleting a message you sent to another person will prevent them from seeing it.

Steps

Method1

On Mobile

1

Open Skype. This app is blue with a white "S" on it. Doing so will open your Skype's main page if you're already logged in.

Is there a way to delete one particular conversation history without deleting other histories?

Community Answer

Yes. If you are on a mobile phone, just select the conversation you'd like to delete and swipe to the left, and it should give you an option to delete it. If you are on a laptop or desktop, you have to right-click, and it will give the same option.

Tips

Warnings

If you delete a message on mobile, the message may still show up on the desktop version of Skype (and vice versa). Deleting the message on mobile can sometimes prevent you from being able to delete the message on desktop.
